Openfort adds Polygon zkEVM and Announces Support for Polygon CDK

[Games for a Living](https://gfal.com/) (GFAL), an innovative gaming studio, announces a groundbreaking partnership with Openfort. This collaboration aims to redefine the gaming experience, leveraging Openfort's advanced technology to elevate GFAL's gaming platforms.

GFAL integrates with Openfort's aPIs into its gaming universe starting with the [marketplace](https://gfal.market/). This strategic move will enhance user experiences, streamline in-game transactions, and bring a new level of immersion to GFAL's popular games, starting with Elemental Raiders.

| Challenges | Solutions |
|---|---|
| - Lack of customization for the GFAL marketplace and portal. - Players onboarding with different wallets breaks the game experience. - New players can’t transact within the ecosystem without the native token. - Lack of security and recoverability with EOA wallets. | - Headless technology to define the UI/UX of the game. - Being able to abstract transaction approvals for the players. - Supporting GFAL ID with the ecosystem of future games. - Paymasters allow users to start interacting with the game without previously having $GFAL. |

> Manel Sort, CEO and founder: **“GFAL advocates for a different approach, where income generation is a natural consequence of enjoying the game, deviating from the trend of web3 games focused solely on revenue generation. Openfort will assist us in implementing future web3 features that will bring our vision to life."**

## Let’s get technical
By utilizing Openfort, GFAL benefits from the following:
### [Seamless player onboarding](https://www.openfort.xyz/docs/guides/auth) 
Through social and email logins, GFAL's user base can now effortlessly establish a non-custodial, multi-chain smart wallet with account abstraction — all in just two clicks. This is achieved without needing to download any software or be concerned about seed phrases. This is achieved thanks to the easy integration between Openfort and Web3Auth, which takes care of the signer management. 
### [Smart account implementation](https://www.openfort.xyz/docs/guides/wallets) 
New players are assigned a wallet address, which are deterministically generated across chains. This ensures actions in the game and marketplace are traced back to the player’s address, and the experience becomes unified in the GFAL ecosystem. 
### [Gasless transactions](https://www.openfort.xyz/docs/guides/dashboard/gas-erc20)
GFAL is able to pay for gas fees with the in-game token $GFAL for each user transaction and cut down costs by batching these transactions thanks to our paymasters. 
### [Onchain Social Recovery](https://www.openfort.xyz/docs/guides/transaction-cloud/accounts/social-recovery)
GFAL leverages the social recovery implementation on their smart accounts, allowing for 2FA in the event that the signer tools disappear and end users lose access to their accounts. 
### Onramps with Ramp
GFAL has smoothly integrated Ramp as the onramp FIAT provider to allow players to smoothly buy their tokens and assets in the marketplace. 
### [Ecosystem ID](https://www.openfort.xyz/docs/guides/ecosystem)
Given the ambition and scale of the GFAL ecosystem, the implementation of GFAL ID as the authentication method across different platforms streamlines the gaming experience by securing game progress and eliminating the need for multiple accounts.

## What makes Openfort stand out?
Openfort seamlessly integrates with GFAL's current development stack, ensuring a smooth transition without the need for significant process adjustments. Additionally, Openfort empowers GFAL’s technical team to create innovative games and features that distinguish them as industry leaders within today’s expanding market.

The volume of smart contracts, transactions, and tokens involved would have made the development, launch, and maintenance processes much too cumbersome to sustain in the long term. The Openfort Pro plan supports the growth and longevity of GFAL with the following:
- Even lower gas and transaction bundling fees
- Lower costs for platform uptime and API requests

## What future features will GFAL support?
GFAL’s vision is ambitious: building an expanding portfolio of competitive web3 games and environments that are all about ‘fun first’, giving everyone a chance to play their games, and creating an original, sustainable project that focuses on making games that players will love, while also having a positive impact on the environment.

Such a vision brings with it specific needs and requirements, which only a comprehensive web3 development stack could fulfill.

- Native game integration. GFAL plans to leverage Openfort’s Unity SDK to leverage native actions in the game without the need to interact with the website or external popups.

Games for a Living and Openfort: Building an innovative game model

We are thrilled to announce Openfort's integration with BASE, Coinbase's Ethereum Layer 2 chain. This collaboration is pivotal for developers and game studios seeking to harness blockchain technology's capabilities without the usual complexities.

## Technical Benefits of BASE and OPStack
[BASE](https://base.org/), incubated by Coinbase and built on the OP Stack, is an Ethereum L2 chain designed to be developer-friendly and low-cost. It enables the deployment of secure, reliable applications on a scalable solution with low transaction fees. 

This chain, as part of the Optimism Superchain, aims to bring Coinbase's vast user base into the on-chain world. The choice of using Optimism’s open-source blueprint for BASE underlines Coinbase's commitment to interoperability and scalability within the blockchain ecosystem.

## Account Abstraction: Simplifying User Interactions
The integration employs account abstraction to streamline user interactions with the blockchain. This innovation separates the technical blockchain details from applications, allowing users to engage with games without managing private keys or worrying about gas fees. This user-friendly approach is crucial for attracting a broader audience and reducing entry barriers for casual gamers.

As an example, Openfort asisted the Exhale Studios to build '[Snake on Base](https://www.bxse.xyz/)' during the Onchain summer. This project exemplifies our commitment to supporting developers and studios in creating engaging blockchain-based games, showcasing the practical applications of our integration with BASE.

### Looking Forward
This partnership represents a significant step forward in making blockchain technology more accessible and practical for game development. It's not just about technological advancement; it's about empowering developers and studios to innovate and expand their offerings in the gaming market.
